Starbucks Arrives in Aruba
Entry into the Dutch Caribbean Supports the Company's International Growth Strategy
ORANJESTAD, ARUBA, Dec. 1, 2009 - Starbucks Coffee International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Starbucks Coffee Company (Nasdaq: SBUX) and the Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino, a wholly owned subsidiary of Metacorp NV, today celebrated the opening of its first store in Oranjestad, Aruba at Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino.

Aruba Marriott finishing renovations
According to Travel Weekly the Aruba Marriott is finishing up their renovation in time for high season:
As the Caribbean's peak travel season fast approaches, the 411-room Aruba Marriott Resort and Stellaris Casino, the largest property on the island, wraps up its 16-month, $50- million, two-phase enhancement project that began in July 2007.
The renovation project included a makeover of all guest rooms, the launch of a Ruth's Chris Steak House to replace the former Tuscany Italian restaurant, the redesign of La Vista themed restaurant, an overhaul of the lobby and reception area and the creation of the 59-room Tradewinds Club on the resort's top floor.
I hope there is a high season this year - hotel news is particularly bad at the moment.
